The Integrated Natural Resource Management Project (INRMP)
INRM is implemented in collaboration with the NWFP Forest Department. Other partners include NWFP Agriculture and Livestock departments. The project is being implemented in districts Mansehra, Haripur and Lower Dir. The project aims at operationalizing an integrated approach in the management of natural resources in and around designated areas by using a participatory approach on the basis of livelihoods analyses. The focus is on ensuring the cooperation between various partners involved (groups within the community, NGOs, the Forest, Livestock and Agriculture Departments and local counselors). The collaborative way of working, developing mutual acceptance and trust between the various partners will contribute to the ownership and thereby to sustainability of natural resources and more opportunities for livelihoods.

Helvetas and Intercooperation merger
On 1st July 2011 – the two organizations merged to become one with a new corporate name “Helvetas Swiss Intercooperation HSI”. Both the organizations have a collective work experience of more than 80 years, hence a rich set of experiences is being merged to pool all the competences for a more effective well-being of people.
Helvetas was founded in 1955 as the first private organisation for development co-operation in Switzerland. Helvetas is a denominationally and politically independent association, supported by approximately 38,000 members, more than 40,000 sponsors and 15 regional volunteer groups. With 18 partner countries, Helvetas currently operates in Africa, Asia – including Central Asia and the Caucasus – and Latin America.
In case of Pakistan, the merger initially arrives with a change of name since Helvetas is not presently working in the country. The organization will enrich itself for combining its forces against poverty and or gaining more competences.
